End of Day Links and Nonsense
Woman who claims to have had sex with 20 ghosts, and who cucked her fiance with a phantasm, says she's gotten married to a poltergeist.
This is a British media story, which means that there is a good chance this woman is simply being paid money to make claims that will sell a lot of newspapers. But I guess paying people to make up stories is how a lot of the media, including the "conservative" media, does things these days. NBC sat on evidence that disproved Creepy Porn Lawyer and his Group-Sex-Lovin' Client and his issued lies to explain this away. The SPLC and other Soros-funded operations join up to censor online speech, as usual. Are we allowed to report this? The latest New Rule of what we are not permitted to say involves noting that Soros is himself a former Nazi collaborator highly interested in socialism and a borderless world. Well, a borderless US, at least. It's almost as if Soros is directing some of the people he funds to issue fatwas against speech criticizing himself.The Womens March, which openly embraces Louis Farrakhan like Twitter Cucks embrace Jake Tapper with their mouths, is holding a rally in favor of antisemitic violence. Wait, re-reading, it says the rally is against antisemitic violence. That can't be right. They love Louis Farrakhan and Hamas. This is either a mistake or some kind of Ashton Kutcher punking. And meanwhile, the ADL study the left is citing as proof that antisemitism has increased under the philosemitic Trump is, of course, Totally Fake News. Apparently they think the increases of college antisemitism are due to Trump's supporters and conservatives as opposed to the more obvious culprits.
One of the best compilations I've ever seen.

I went from being pretty certain that there would be a Blue Wave (just because of history and the Republican Congress was such a joke) to thinking it was maybe a "Blue Puddle" to thinking it really could be a Red Wave.
I do think the "Florida Man" took some momentum out, but I think the caravan saga is absolute gold for Trump and Republicans. Republicans will gain like 3 Senate seats and could even see maybe 6 if it breaks our way.
I'll also concede though that the AZ Senate race officially has me worried, but still think McSally pulls it out. Still will say its the most likely race where a Democrat takes away a Republican seat.

Remakes always have to amp up elements of the original. The Orgy and Mrs Muir seems like it will lack a lot of the subtlety and romance of the 1947 film.

Is it lack of enthusiasm for McSally among Republicans?
Posted by: MAGA
____________
Not sure, but think it's a few things.
Sinema has really outspent McSally, it's absurd the amount of money she has raised.
I definitely think it was also an ugly primary with the "moderate" Republican winning against Joe Arpaio and Kelly Ward. I'm thinking though the Trump wing comes home against Sinema eventually but there's still a lot of bitterness towards the Flake/McCain side and McSally is viewed as that wing.
But with all the crazy gaffes that have come out from Sinema, the fact she is leading in the polls is baffling. And most every other Republican is winning handily.
The race has definitely moved more in McSally's direction, but way too close for comfort.

Gotta throw my marker down now. R's keep the House, losing only a few, Senate gain 4 or 5, but I would not be surprised if it is more. Would be surprised if it is only 3.
Michigan will elect the stupid Granholm 2.0 chick (we here in Michigan seem to go back and forth with our govs. Eight years D, then eight years R. Can't seem to settle on anything.) John James has a real shot. That Stabenow even agreed to debate him tells me a lot about their internals. Last go round she refused to debate a guy who was a household name in MI. Jones has no name recognition, never ran for anything before but has her on defense. I expect it will be close and he might just pull it off. Hoping so.

Also true
The local paper The Arizona Republic has moved dramatically Left over the years and unfortunately there are a lot of independent voters that take their cues from that stupid newspaper. Local TV stations are totally in the tank for Sinema.
Sinema is viewed nationally as a rising star, so they are really pulling out all the stops for her. Left wing, somewhat attractive, bisexual. Sort of a Hollywood dream candidate.

The local paper The Arizona Republic has moved dramatically Left over the years and unfortunately there are a lot of independent voters that take their cues from that stupid newspaper. Local TV stations are totally in the tank for Sinema.
Sinema is viewed nationally as a rising star, so they are really pulling out all the stops for her. Left wing, somewhat attractive, bisexual. Sort of a Hollywood dream candidate.

I don't know about facial expressions, but now that my son's three I'm hearing a lot of my phrases come out of his face. Several times a day I find myself thinking, "Wow, I guess I do say that a lot."

Which is actually pretty sane.

I realize that Hellery was supposed to finish what Barky started wrt the final destruction of US. But I don't think those idiots thought that through to well. Hellery isn't a true believer. She's a money grubbing grifter who loves power and sells to the highest bidder. If she got the right amount of $ to fuck the U.S. she would but then her power and prestige along with Bill's would go poof. And Chubble wouldn't have the option of carrying on the family tradition. I have to wonder if she would have given Barky and the gang what they wanted or would have said fuck you to people she and Billy boy clearly hate. Then again, she seems to hate everyone.

Posted by: runner

I also think that's a real thing.
I know we saw that in 2014, but even with a tightening, the polls were crazy off on a lot of state races.
Not surprisingly, they almost all dramatically favored Democrats across the board.
Polling is broken, but I can't dismiss it entirely. If a Republican goes into Election Day down like 6 points, it's going to be close.

Not true. The hot/crazy matrix is real. Use it.
If all the chicks around you seem nuts it's ether because you live in Ann Arbor or Berkeley or you're the one with the problem.
I knew a guy who was otherwise squared away but it took three divorces for him to figure out that he was the one wrecking his marriages by constantly trying to placate his wives, be sensitive and so on.
In other words, he was making them crazier.
Don't make them crazier. Be the rock of stability and discipline that keeps them sane.
And I use the word "discipline" in every sense.

I have zero faith in polling.
I'm not going to go on my statistics rant again, but polling is useless.
"One of the candidates will win. Likely by 3 or 4 points, but with a 3 point margin of error." is, well, a guess.
A guess that is likely to be true in most competitive districts / states / presidential elections.
But hardly based on any kind of real math.

I've seen some races where you average all the polling and it came out very close. I want to say in 2012, the RealClearPolitics averaging correctly called like 49 out of 50 states.
But I just think polling in the present is not as accurate for a variety of reasons (landlines, caller ID, less trust of media, etc) But it's better than pure guessing. Most polls for example were right, Hillary did "win" the popular vote, it's just that was a meaningless number.
I also think though that polling WAS viewed more as a "just the facts" type operation by professional statisticians and has morphed into a weapon in politics to drive narratives.
This also allows in certain modeling like where you ASSume Democrats are going to outnumber Republicans by 10 points, etc.
But if a candidate has several polls showing them losing by say 5 plus points, I get worried.

They're not results, but they're a lot more real than survey numbers - absentee returns + early voting. Where they have them, and where the stats are reported regularly (not every state).
And so far, with a week to go, few or zero of those #s are showing any sort of blue wave. The inductive premise - things will continue as they have been in the past - is of course for these #s to have any meaning at all. And that's far from certain.
Even several (all?) of the most hotly contested CA House races - all of them expected/needed to go Dem for blue waves and House flips etc. - are looking, on the basis of these early tea leaves, to be going GOP.
There's till time for the Dems/media complex to generate one more self-inflicted wound, maybe two. One wonders if the current blood-libel fest against Trump isn't yet another own-goal. All depends on the voters. Yeah, a terrifying and discouraging situation.

Sinema has really outspent McSally, it's absurd the amount of money she has raised.
I definitely think it was also an ugly primary with the "moderate" Republican winning against Joe Arpaio and Kelly Ward. I'm thinking though the Trump wing comes home against Sinema eventually but there's still a lot of bitterness towards the Flake/McCain side and McSally is viewed as that wing.
================================
What is with brutal GOP primaries leaving candidates broke while the Dem just rakes in the cash and then defines the Republican until he/she can raise enough money to defend themselves? Same thing happened here in WI with Leah Vukmir. At least McSally is somewhat still in the game.
Another issue in the AZ race, and this may be sexist, is that Kyrsten Sinema is just a much more physically attractive woman than Martha McSally and she also has a much more outgoing and charming personality.
The GOP is doing a nice job turning out early voters, but I've heard that there is concern that Sinema is getting a decent share of GOP crossover votes.

Something like a few union bosses can tell you not to run and you damn well better listen if you want a future. I had a friend that wanted to run for office as a Democrat (and had won statewide) and he got the "talk" when he wanted to run for Governor.

Posted by: Ghost of Lee Atwater at October 30, 2018 07:30 PM (nu45M)
It's important to distinguish the difference. Seriously. The actual numbers are indeed meaningless, but the week to week trend of the average is a trend they cannot hide. And in the last 3 weeks, of course it is getting much closer. Because the polls are Democrat mindf**k tools, but at election time they have to be accurate, that is the only number history remembers. But if they are off, they are ruined for the next election. And they won't get hired or paid next time.
Many presidential polls were wiped out in 2016 because they were so far off at election time.

Statistics is helpful in huge aggregates.
Let's say I own a car insurance company. I can say, on average, thanks to millions of filed claims, that 16 year old boys are going to be more likely to get in to an accident then 45 year old men.
And, in the aggregate, that's great.
But think about what we're doing with political polling -- we're calling thousands of people. We get 1,000 responses. We already have a self selection bias problem. We might have had 7000 people hang up on us. The 1000 who answered are not exactly representative. We no longer have a random sample.
Okay, fine.
Now we get our responses back. However, we don't have a big enough sample size to get an accurate representation of demographic groups, much less political groups.
So we start weighing numbers. But to what number? We have no way of knowing, exactly, what turn out will look like. So we guess. (Ok, only 11% of responses were black, but we think the electorate this time will be more like 19% black, so we'll weigh those responses a little more strongly then the responses of white people. Well, except now white women under 29 are underrepresented... so we'll weigh those differently....)
By the time you get to the end of the process, it looks much more like a GUESS then it does any kind of mathematically arrived at conclusion.

I still kind of get the feeling that Sinema is winning because she's appealing to the transplants who want to look down upon the lifelong residents in order to feel superior.

Unless something has changed this cycle, the GOP always outperforms the polls. I don't expect any significant change in the House makeup. My lowball estimate for the Senate is +3. If the GOP runs the tables on the Senate races, they'll likely even net a few on the House side.
The key as always is base turnout. The donks have certainly enraged their base to showup and give them a 2010 like win. Problem is their rage has been focused on impeaching Trump, whereas the Tea Party was pissed off over Obamacare, TARP, Stimulus, Cash for Clunkers, etc. Obama, and it as it appears Trump, are both personally popular. Obama's agenda was not well received and his base stayed home, Trump's agenda is rather popular and the donks have made sure his base knows what'll happen if they get complacent. Add to that, Trump, as gifted a retail politician as Bill Clinton, is out there campaigning with the energy of a man a third his age making sure everyone knows to get out and MAGA.
The conditions for a massacre of the donks is definitely there, but I don't want to get my hopes up. Moderate Senate gain and smaller GOP House majority is the safest bet.

Properly administered discipline has nothing to do with whips and chains (not that there's anything wrong with that). It's a personal state of control of the situation.
Done correctly, she can't imagine life without you. But it does take work. I was a latecomer to the skill, but it does pay dividends once you figure it out.

I have read some stuff on this...way back when. The gist of it was he realized OJ was guilty. He was friends with the wife too. Anyway, it ate him alive. Some believe it hastened his illness and death. Don't know about that, but I do believe there is a very strong mind/body connection, and it is in the realm of possibility. Not the sole factor though...most things aren't.

I paid off my wifes student loan debts than she filed for divorce after 2 years of marriage.
She is leaving him for The Paulo. I have tried to explain to her that The Paulo, he must be free, like a wild stallion. But she will not listen.
Posted by: Paolo at October 30, 2018 08:15 PM (hvf9s)
On the topic of paying off student loans though -- I've had... maybe 3? friends go through that.
Marry a woman with a ton of debt, work as a team to pay it off, then all of a sudden she's just not happy in the relationship anymore.
...You know how it goes.
And no, you don't get any bonus points in divorce court for that. Still get as equally fucked as you would if you did not pay off any debt.

We go through these things and can come out wiser, and make better choices in the future. Life is like that. To be human and to hurt is the same thing.

Having them be wooed, and to vote, as individuals and not a forever-owned bloc is the ideal. If they start listening to Republican candidates their votes can be won, as is done with other demographics. That's what I hope happens.

I am truly blessed. The first date with the future Mrs. Minnfidel, my old POS Ford truck wouldn't start. So we drove her car. I had just started my business and was barely breaking even. She certainly didn't marry me for money, not sure what she saw in me. We've had our ups and downs but over 23 years together made it work. Two great kids albeit two teen daughters that will try your patience, but they are great. We're a pretty good team. She is looking after the business and home front while I spend a few days deer hunting at our family log cabin in the woods where I get to drink bourbon, sit around the fireplace and relax. She makes me take breaks sometimes because she knows I am better for it. She loves my imperfect self and so do my kids. So while I am far from wealthy, I am rich!

People don't realize that marriage is indeed a contract, that you do not write yourself, did not negotiate yourself, but some default set of matters thrown together by some legislature. It is great if it works, or if it does not and you are parting from a decent person. BUt, if you are tied to a bitch or a bastard, then you is screwed.

Sure. Guy I know at work was having problems with his wife. Constant arguments. She'd ask him for his advice and then ignore it, or get mad at him for saying the wrong thing. He was utterly miserable.
So I asked him: Why do you keep using the same failed tactics and expecting a different result? Why don't you do something different?
He said: Like what?
I said: She wants your advice. Don't give it to her. She takes it for granted. So tell her that you need to think it over and won't give her an answer for at least a day. Because you really need to give it full consideration.
I also told him to point out that certain things are out of bounds, like hanging up on you during a phone call or bothering you at work with things that can wait until later. Be gentle but firm. These are non-negotiable.
It's been two months now, and he's said his relationship has never been better.

2017 Washington Examiner Article noting "In every poll, Democrat respondents outnumbered Republicans by significant amounts. The Economist poll was the worst. Only 24 percent of respondents (360) were Republicans compared to 38 percent (570) Democrats - which means that 58 percent more Democrats were polled than Republicans, as shown in the %D/R column. On average, in these seven widely recognized national polls, only 29 percent (409 people) of the total 1,383 polled were Republicans, while 37 percent (51 were Democrats. Another way of saying it is that, on average, 29 percent more Democrats than Republicans were polled." wrote James Simpson, an economist, businessman and journalist.
Simpson called the practice "fraud."
There's a reason they ALWAYS overpoll Democrats, and a reason they're usually not too far off the actual end result (Trump election notwithstanding).
It's because of voter fraud.
If the polls were done perfectly fairly, the election results would look nothing like the polls. They have to put up a huge web of bullshit to mirror what the election result will be with thousands of fraudulent votes in every major city.

Not saying that Sinemax is preferable, though I think she has a chance thanks to Californian transplants, but lateral move. Even if the President approves.

Fact is, we have no idea of knowing how much voter fraud is present in the system. The fact that Dems commit Kavanaugh-Tier meltdowns over suggested improvements to voter verification is my strongest evidence that something ain't right. Taking flak over the target, and all that.
Also noting that 1-2% voter fraud can swing elections in these neck-n-neck times.
Unbelievable lack of leadership to ensure fair and transparent elections by American citizens.

To be honest, I'd be greatly relieved if this were the only demographic shift we had to worry about.

- Russian women are hot.
- Their prostitutes may urinate on the beds, but they don't crap in public pools.
- They have a gloomy, sardonic sense of humor.
- Eastern orthodox won't keel you up for drawing religious figures since they've already been producing icons for over a millennia.

Every relationship is different. That should go without saying but I'll say it anyway.
The point is that a lot of women (but not all) want the man to BE A MAN - to be strong and provide a stable pillar for the relationship. Starting in the 70s, that idea came under sustained and heavy attack. Men were supposed to share feelings, be equal partners and so on, and the result was that both men and women ended up miserable.
In the example I gave, that was the real problem. His wife was pushing not because she wanted to rule the roost, but because she wanted him to be STRONGER. The more he tried to placate her, the angrier she became.
When he finally found his backbone and took up the mantle of leadership (that she'd apparently been offering for years) things got immediately better. They communicate better because they understand what they want out of each other.
And nothing about that implies that there isn't tenderness and romance.
I'm just saying that without respect and rules, the other stuff doesn't matter.

I like interest rates rising.
As one who has limited debt, I've been frustrated st the 0% prime rate for a decade or longer.

It means properties are difficult to buy, because every piece of available commercial real estate is owned by speculators that buy and hold paying interest only notes.

Fake it til you make it.
And yeah, fix your financial situation. I'm sure that's easier said than done, but yeah -- do what you can.
I mean, I'm at best average looking and I've never really had an issue getting chicks. Even last weekend I was out with my brother and his friends (much younger than me), and I had a girl follow me outside and ask me if I wanted to go back to her place and smoke weed with her (hint hint).
I said no, because, like I said... just not in the mood for it. Plus ... smoke weed? What am I? 16?
But yeah. I just smiled a lot and danced with her and her girl friends to lame music and danced with other girls on the dance floor and acted like I had a ton of self confidence.
Think about it -- a girl that's a 5 suddenly becomes a 7 if she's confident and seems to have her shit together. The reverse is also true.

In the example I gave, that was the real problem. His wife was pushing not because she wanted to rule the roost, but because she wanted him to be STRONGER. The more he tried to placate her, the angrier she became.
When he finally found his backbone and took up the mantle of leadership (that she'd apparently been offering for years) things got immediately better. They communicate better because they understand what they want out of each other.
And nothing about that implies that there isn't tenderness and romance.
I'm just saying that without respect and rules, the other stuff doesn't matter.

Hard to say. Certainly not to that level, not at first. But there were some things that with the benefit of hindsight were red flags but I didn't have the tools to identify them. Plus, without going into my whole life story, I was raised in an environment in which emotional terrorism was the order of the day, so I was saturated with it. Like when you get overwhelmed with a scent but after a minute or two you can't smell it anymore. It also taught me that certain hostile and dysfunctional behaviors were just things you had to put up with if you wanted to be in a relationship.

Predicting elections from polling is a bit like predicting the stock market from the current day's price, probably even worse than that.
It's suffers from the same problem of predicting the choice from a aggregate of millions of choices.

Such as in California, where in LA 144% of voting age residents have registered to vote.
Maths: How does it fucking work?
Nope.
None at all.
No voter roll fraud, not a bit.
Because in Motor Voter states, anyone, and I mean anyone, can register to vote just by filling out a card and checking a box.
Mexican citizen? El Salvadoran citizen? Russian citizen?
NO PROBLEM!!!
I live in one of the crooked states and have seen this with my own eyes when renewing my license.
There has been evidence proving this, a few days after Trump was elected, thousands of nearly all Latino-named voters in Colorado "un-registered".
This would be easy to prove. Take a thousand random voters from the rolls, and go find either their birth certificate, or their naturalization court papers. If you don't have one or the other, you cannot vote.
Unless you were a son of a sharecropper born 150 years ago, all living citizens have birth certificates, or became a citizen in a Federal court action. The document exists for all. I'm guessing that in some areas like SoCal, it is over 25% non-citizens voting. I'm guessing in Seattle it is at least 5%, maybe 10%.
The Democrat party would collapse overnight if voters had to prove their citizenship.
After the election, Trump could make this an issue of the 2020 census. It would be delicious and satisfying. And renew confidence in the US voter rolls.

I think one of the keys to a good relationship might be to just organically talk with someone of your preferred sex without any pretense or strategy.
Perhaps be honest with them. If you actually enjoy their company, perhaps invite them to do some things together. If you enjoy doing things and feel romantically inclined, you might try kissing them.
If that works, you might date them, all the while with no real strategy, just being yourself and bring honest and genuine.
Perhaps one day you might even marry them and you'll compromise and do things for them and they'll do things for you because you love each other and want to.
It's a sneaky, long-game strategy.

Very true. A so so looking girl can really up her value if she's funny, has a good personality, and of course other admirable traits.
Back when I was a teenager there was a chick at work who wouldn't have many awards in the looks department, but she had the same dark, bizarre sense of humor I do and we clicked pretty well. She could take a gag I through out and really elevate it. We came up with lots of running gags that went into some strange and hilarious territory. I never dated her because I had a girlfriend through the time that I knew her, but we both probably would've just because we clicked so well.
Like I said, she wasn't all that with looks, but here I am writing about her thirty plus years later. I think about her occasionally. Humor and a good personality works very well.

>>>And meanwhile, the ADL study the left is citing as proof that antisemitism has increased under the philosemitic Trump is, of course, Totally Fake News. Apparently they think the increases of college antisemitism are due to Trump's supporters and conservatives as opposed to the more obvious culprits.
If Trump by moving our embassy to Jerusalem makes Muslims living in our country angry so that they attack Jewish college students, this is to the left the same as if Trump were in charge of a Neo-nazi organization and ordered his soldiers to attack the same students. It's all his fault.
The Muslims aren't responsible for own actions. If something Trump does inadvertently upsets them, they get to commit violent acts without consequence and it is all Trump's fault for inciting them and not foreseeing they'd behave like a bunch of animals without a prefrontal cortex.
*Now* do you understand?

It's all in the attitude. What you have to do is make up a set period of time where you aggressively do not want a relationship. Say three months.
Then, during that time, be the most obnoxious flirt in human history. See just how bad you can fail. It helps to have buddies around to watch your stunning face-plants.
Make it into a game and enjoy it.
And yes, full disclosure, I met my wife by accident and won her over precisely because I'd just had a nasty breakup and was just out to wreak havoc on womankind. That gave me confidence I'd never had before and it paid off.

Now, that is pretty hilarious and childish...to have Care Bears on your checks, IMO. But he said it with contempt. I thought...I give this relationship 2 years tops. They were seperated then divorced within a year.
He could have still said it, but w/o contempt, and it would have been different.
Anyway, I have found it slam dunk true ever since. Unless faith in God was part of their marriage. Then it hasn't always been true...but still some of the time.

Trump said yesterday his schedule is jammed, and is trying to get back to Michigan to support John James in his Senate campaign. James has come out of nowhere and is down by 7 (from 25 down) and is closing the gap at a record pace.
Still a bit of a long shot, but James would be a fantastic Senator and Trump Republican. His story is a classic American Success Story. He would be the anti-Mittens.

This all of this is traceable to feminist ideology telling girls and women we must be the strong one and be in charge of the relationship. We have to make the decisions because otherwise we are surrendering our power to men. That's toxic. Relationships are about balance.

One would not think a study would be needed to tell us that...
Posted by: I'm Brother Cavil, and I recommend The Courage To Be Disliked at October 30, 2018 08:52 PM (lLeln)
For me it was news. I would have thought hate, or screaming, or money problems. I would have considered contempt transitory, or just a component.
So for me, it was news. Then using it IRL to see if really was a predictor (bcz so many studies are shit) convinced me.
It also made me examine my own relationships, from family to friendships to bfs. And my own level of contempt, and awareness of same, and how it might impact my relationships. Was I guilty of it, and what did it mean about me? Did I need to work on it or improve

This all of this is traceable to feminist ideology
telling girls and women we must be the strong one and be in charge of
the relationship. We have to make the decisions because otherwise
we are surrendering our power to men. That's toxic. Relationships
are about balance.
If I'm weak I need hubbymayhem to be strong, if he is weakened then I'm the one who must be strong for him. Simple as that.

What was described as Trump's final schedule for the week did not have MI on it, and based on what it *did* have on it, I speculated that it was primarily a House-retention approach. Which is logical. Senate was always looking OK to good, has looked quite good for a while, whereas the mechanics (# of seats w/out an incumbent up) of the House have always been daunting.
2 stops in MO, FL. 1 in TN, GA, MT, OH, IN.
I'm sure the choices were made based on lots of strategizing as to races where Trump could have most impact. He's quite popular overall, but not equally, everywhere.

>> So why are dicks so successful with women, at least
>> as far as bedding them?
The evolutionary psychology explanation goes something like this. Women are naturally attracted to "alphas", leadership, confidence, etc, etc. Because hooking up with soy boys meant they'd be the first to be killed when the neighboring tribe attacked, or the saber tooth tiger was looking for a meal.
The problem is, that in modern society, it's the jerks, narcissists and psychopaths who display the strong alpha traits in public.
There are actual tutorials out there on "how to act like an alpha". It's all about body language that displays confidence and assertiveness.

My 0.02: most guys put on an act for women, and it's pretty obvious most of the time. If you come off as a total dick, or a pandering pussy soyboy, or a sleazy PUA, it's not that great.
My trick since I've been a kid is that when I meet a woman, I pretend I'm talking to a guy I just met and struck up a conversation with. That way, I'm just being myself, which always seemed to work better than some "strategy."

Because men born from the 70s on have had their masculinity hammered out of them. We were told that it was good to cry, to be sensitive, deferential and in all ways formless eunuchs around women.
Add in divorce and absent fathers, and you have a pretty tough hill to climb for men to find themselves.
To put it another way: How do you change who you are? I mean, if you want to be more assertive, confident, in control of your life, how do you do it?
You fake it. That's how you do it at first. You try to make it a game and in time, the behavior becomes normal and a newer, more confident person emerges.
This isn't about notches on the bedpost, it's about finding one's true self and gaining the confidence that once came with adulthood.

Right. That's a better way of saying what I was saying about confidence.
It really is more important than looks or money.
But it's a thin line between confidence and being a complete dickhole. The guys who do the best with women are experts at walking that line.
Not that dickholes can't get laid, but they usually either end up marrying a girl with serious issues or being the kind of guy with 4 divorces and kids who hate him.

grammie, he visited there last week, right?
As I said, I'm speculating it's mostly a House-centric strategy. So maybe the highest impact House race visits are elsewhere, simply not enough time?
The only Senate-only visit on his schedule seems to be MT (unless I'm missing that there's a hotly contested House seat(s) in MT??). Others are dual-purpose (MO TN GA) or triple-purpose (FL - governor as well as Senate and House).
A WI Moron persuasively asserted a while ago that WI was simply a question of whether the machine Walker has assembled over recent years got it done, or not. What do you think? That true, and are they getting it done?
One somewhat mysterious thing remains the reportedly massive GOTV operation of the RNC (reputed to be much larger than 2016). Maybe some of the fruit of that is already being seen in the very impressive GOP early vote/absentee vote #s in many key states?

Contempt, like anger, is a reasonable reaction to provocation and being treated like the enemy while funding her lifestyle.
No dime-store psychoanalysis changes that.
Posted by: mikeyG at October 30, 2018 09:10 PM (LL1Be)
We aren't talking about the same kind of contempt then.
There is a contempt that is unprompted, or prompted by silly things. Or by judgement. Or superiority.

Well, that's more of a testament to your parenting then anything.
I was born in the late '80s, and let me tell you -- there is a SERIOUS issue with being masculine in my generation.
Like any even remotely "boy-like" behavior was severely punished in school. Kids got a big rambunctious and they were put on ADHD medication.
In school suspensions for playing cops and robbers at recess.
Shamed by school shrinks not talking about our feelings.
Like it was a tough world to grow up in as a young red blooded male. Luckily I grew up in a house with a father who was a strong male influence.
I can only imagine how bad it is now.

No, it's true, and you just proved it.
Are you a feminist? Did you divorce? Did your son go to school in an affluent school district filled with feminist dogma.
Do the words "T.A. for Tots" ring a bell. Did you ever watch Rosey Grier singing "It's All Right to Cry"?
Don't get me wrong - it's great that your son is doing well. It warms my heart and gives me hope for the future, but you need to understand that the sexual revolution left a lot of badly broken people in its wake and they are struggling to put themselves back together.

NJ going GOP on Senate would be wonderful (not predicting Menendez replacement would be worth much, other than as a not-D), it's my second most desired "upset" (James/MI is first).
On the other hand, Menendez being re-elected would be redundant but dramatic confirmation that the country is (probably fatally) burdened by an enormous bloc of people who are amoral robotic voters/malleable dunces.
Behold what basically a very thin whisper campaign does to a GOP candidate in a dark red state like AL. Then consider Menendez being re-elected in NJ.
It's not one electorate, it's several, and one or more of them really aren't a useful part of any system founded on American principles of governance and citizenship.

Horse shit. I don't give a neon fuck what "modern culture" thinks. I'm old fashioned that way, and I think a lot of other women are too. But we are bombarded with toxic feminist ideology and so are men. Women are afraid of being wrong. Men are afraid of looking stupid. These are facts of human nature and feminazis use it to diminish Men and elevate incompetent women.
This is my possibly unpopular belief. ..
Every woman deserves a good man. A good man is intelligent, interesting., loving, strong, responsible, and deserves a good woman. A good woman is smart, responsible, loving, caring and generous. Unfortunately women like that have trouble saying no. We try to do too much, get overwhelmed and wind up becoming an emotional mess. A good man who loves his woman pays attention to this and sees she is making herself ill, causing problems in the relationship, whatever. He must take control and make sure she settles the fuck down before everything goes to shit.
If her man is weakened by grief, losses, illness, whatever... then a woman needs to step the fuck up and take care of shit until her man is back on point. Men are men, women are women. God made us different for a reason.

She had such suggestions as taking our wives last names, allowing women to propose to us, playing with barbies and not watching stupid action movies, etc.

" Kids got a big rambunctious and they were put on ADHD medication."
To be fair I have seen kids who SHOULD be on ADHD medication and aren't. It's heartbreaking, it really is, these kids CANNOT slow down. One kid runs laps around the classroom for ten minutes just to wear himself out to the point where he can sit down, but it doesn't last long. When he's on his meds he is calm but not catatonic.
Of course this is in an area where substance abuse runs rampant and no one is quite certain who the babydaddy is...so there is that.

My kids went to Christian school and I yelled something something about running in your pantyhose at one of the football games. Is that feminist? I dunno. They keep changing the definitions.
I'm a conservative traditionalist evangelical Christian who has grandkids and is married to a minister. I guess that would be my best descriptor.

Thankfully I don't recall going through that. Then again I had a tough as nails mother and a father who could tame her. And those are her words not mine, well actually she said she could be a monster and my dad was the only man who could stare the monster down.

Martell - I think the MI rally was Trump's last, day before election, at 1AM local time. He had more energy than the crowd. His 7th (?) event THAT DAY, after a non-stop week. Something a bit scary and unnatural about his energy level.

Holy crap. What did your parents say when they found out ?
Posted by: runner at October 30, 2018 09:26 PM (bUjCl)
I mean there's not much you can say.
They were like, "well, you still need to respect your teacher and get a good grade, but she's not exactly right on this subject..." and tried to gently add their own thoughts in.
But what can you really do? Tell a 11 year old boy to ignore his teacher? Built in excuse for getting bad grades.
Complain to the school? The principal and ever other teacher working there agrees with that teacher. And now your kid is a "problem child" who may or may not see his grades suffer, but will definitely be treated less well.
It's ... I mean, that's just what the education system is nowadays.

Not entirely true. Yes, it is possible to crack through the shell, but part of building confidence is acting confident. Acting. As in, it's an act.
In time, the act because the reality. A new personality emerges that has true confidence.

Completely agree. It is about momentum, getting it started. It is much more difficult to start it than continue it.
I was in commission sales for many years. One learns this lesson of confidence, how to at least give the appearance of confidence, through the sales process until the order was written up.
One finds a rhythm after a while, recognizes it, and then it gets easier. It also helps a lot if you can get someone to coach you, whether in sales, or in search of a relationship.

When the notice pops up you can click the bottom part of the notice to reload AdBlock on my version as well.
If none of that works, then remove Adblock and reinstall it from your Google account.

Posted by: votermom pimping NEW Moron-authored books! at October 30, 2018 09:31 PM (dMvl+)
Nobody knows. It was discussed on the ONT. I think Miley said she'd emailed him last night to see if he was OK?
Posted by: hogmartin at October 30, 2018 09:34 PM (mS+Df)
Oh good! I was surprised no one seemed to have his e-mail. Glad she did. When I was there they were talking about sending a search team to find his laundromat, so Miley wasn't there then.

That's just silly. It's not rationally deniable that in general "nice" people made far less of a mark on history than not nice people.

I think you guys are just talking about different things.
Yes, being "nice" in the sense of being friendly and caring is important.
On the other side, I think with you're saying, Insomniac -- is that beta males finish last. Which is undeniably true.
Which is why others of us are saying you need to act like an alpha (confident, friendly, nice, alpha) and not let people push you around or manipulate you.

Wait, are we discussing a theory of history or how to have a stable, happy relationship and a fulfilling life?
Because sociopaths aren't the ones stopping you from that. Okay, so you won't be the next Josef Stalin or Oliver Cromwell, but was that really your goal?
One thing I try (oh so hard I try) to instill in my kids is to be dispassionate whenever they get a setback and say: "what could you have done differently? What can you learn from this?"
Sometimes, the answer is "nothing," but it's a useful way to take ownership of a problem and bounce back.
Chin up, and all that.

Unfortunately a large number of teachers are caught up in that trap as well. It's not that they agree...it's that they dare not DIS agree or they suffer as well. It's not just the education system that is like that. When was the last time you felt comfortable discussing politics in the general public where you work? I know I won't do it.
Posted by: GGE of the Moron Horde, NC Chapter at October 30, 2018 09:34 PM (vbvxt)
Yeah. I have several friends who are teachers, many of whom share political and world views with me, but ... their curriculum is what it is. The books they use are what they are.
And there is a TON of peer pressure from other teachers. Plus a scary hierarchical system that can exert a lot of pressure on teachers to think and teach the right way.
Like if you teach 4th grade and teach something to your kids, then they repeat what you taught them to the radical feminist 5th grade teacher, it's a huge issue.
Better to just avoid the headache.

Who first founded libraries and universities and orphanages? Who ministered to those with the plague when no one else would touch them? Nice people like you. And shut up - you're nice. Deal with it.

511. Had similar experiences raising two boys in the 90s. The school system seems to employ an unending supply of (usually) angry antimale hacks that belittle and do their best to destroy boys confidence and creativity. To this day I have a great dislike towards the teaching profession based on their behavior towards boys.
Boys and girls are not the same. Yet they expect boys to behave like girls in the classrooms from kinder through 5th grade.

I'll be honest. I didn't figure that out on my own. I was wracked with doubt and stewed over my mistakes.
And then I joined the Army. I wasn't a good fit in many ways, but the whole "suck it up, drive on" mentality was tonic to me. Yes! The mission! Keep going! Let it go!
I've tried to pass that on to as many people as I meet.
I've since gone even further to revel in my failures. I positively celebrate them!
Think about it: what story is more interesting to hear? Do you want to listen to some guy go on and on about his perfect grade point, his flawless job interview and his plush house?
Hell, no. You want to hear about how he almost failed ninth grade, the time he wrecked the police cruiser and the years he spent living in a van.
I am now at a point in my life where I treasure my failures at least as much as my successes.
Oh, and that gives me confidence. You want real confidence? Take pride in your failures. Celebrate them. Exaggerate them.
Own them.

I'll be honest. I didn't figure that out on my own. I was wracked with doubt and stewed over my mistakes.
And then I joined the Army. I wasn't a good fit in many ways, but the whole "suck it up, drive on" mentality was tonic to me. Yes! The mission! Keep going! Let it go!
I've tried to pass that on to as many people as I meet.

Regarding Palp, I thought he was getting set for the TX MoMee, but said he had to cancel about a week or two prior. Which might or might not be related, I'm totally clueless there.
But take that with a grain of salt, I'm going off of imperfect memory here.

Exactly. Being "alpha" IMO just means mastering yourself and being the best you possible. ..

I read that as "Being Alpha means masturbating yourself and being the best possible".

"Like if you teach 4th grade and teach something to your kids, then they
repeat what you taught them to the radical feminist 5th grade teacher,
it's a huge issue."
It's not even SJW stuff. Math, ferfucksakes. Mrs Hades teaches 3rd grade. She was raked over the coals this year because the kids she taught math to was already working problems in the manner that the 4th grade was supposed to teach them. She was supposed to teach some other method that she had no idea how to do because she had never done it herself. Meanwhile, her students WERE GETTING THE RIGHT ANSWERS, AND IN THE CORRECT MANNER, but they weren't being TAUGHT to do it by the "right" teacher.
So what she does is teach them how to do it the right way, then teaches them the strategies they are supposed to be learning in the 3rd grade so they can check their work. (FWIW, tenure isn't always a bad thing.)

I haven't been in a fight in 10 years, and I hang out at bars a lot.
Whenever someone gets in my face (which happens from time to time), I make a joke and/or offer to buy him a drink or whatever. It really doesn't happen often. And I never walk away like a pussy, more like "oh, come on, man, you could totally kick my ass. And I'm really not looking for an ass kicking tonight. How about I buy you a beer?"
Because some drunk idiot talking shit to me at a bar is nto going to shatter my confidence and I'm not going to beta'ed in to getting a black eye because I'm worried about backing down from a fight ha

To be fair, there are still places in our country where the law of the jungle still prevails. If a guy gets up in your face with the chest thumping, you're going to have to fight him if you wish to maintain any kind of social standing in the context of that community or setting.

Those places are pretty easy to see and avoid. I'm in no shape to fight now, but when I was, saying something like "I'd rather not do this, but if you gotta, let's go" talked the situation down the couple of times it became an issue.
Admittedly, being 6'1" and 220 lbs. was also helpful here.

A few nights ago there was a discussion about dwarfism vs midgets. I mentioned A friend of mine who is a dwarf an has no fucks to give about that fact. He doesn't see himself as disabled or less of a man than someone of average height. This fellow is pure alpha male. He has a temper and I personally saw him unleash a nasty attitude that stepped a big man back. Dude is 3.5 feet tall and 6ft guy backed the fuck off.
It ain't about physical violence, it's about owning who you are and making damn sure anyone who thinks they can fuck with you understands that you will not be trampled.

He said he taught school for exactly one quarter, and when it was time to do parent-teacher conferences he was talking to one mother about her little angel and after unsuccessfully trying to convince mamma that Lil' Angel needed to sharpen her focus or fail he said "and I heard a voice saying "You'd better put her fat ass on a diet then so she'll look good on the pole" and thought...who said that? Oh shit, it was me! He said he just got up, walked to the office and submitted his resignation, then walked down to the Navy recruiters office.

The good news is that Mom took your advice, daughter lost lots of weight and now looks so good on the pole she's making $500 per night! Really an American success story, if you will!
Don't ask me how I know this!

You probably do, but don't know it.
Driving a used rust bucket, living with three other guys to split rent but INDEPENDENT can do wonders.
Hell, even after I was unemployed I didn't ask for a dime. Food stamps are quite lavish, btw.
It's all up to you. Start from the premise of what your options are, and yes, go into the whole "I'm alone on the street with only the clothes on my back."
I'll tell you one thing - having your back against an no shit wall gives you a much greater appreciation when things don't suck later on.
but I don't.

"and 3, Soros' own admission that he had done that."
and 4, he doesn't regret it.
btw, you can't inventory property until you get rid of the owners.

According to the account I read, Soros admitted his Nazi complicity, blamed it on his youth, but denied any regrets, due to his alleged victimhood. So yeah, Soros was an unrepentant Nazi during WWII.
